It seems like most of us agree that the speed drawbacks wouldn’t be worth it — which I find understandable.
If my understanding of excepthooks is correct, and that it’s the place to put code that should be executed once an AttributeError is raised, it sounds like a great solution. However, AttributeErrors aren’t the only exceptions raised when a shadowing module is imported. A broad range of exceptions could be raised as a result of an unintended module being imported. One option would be to implement a similar search whenever any exception is raised and the conditions that you mentioned apply. Limiting it to AttributeError would be odd. -- Gustav _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/ASK5DPSZHBWVG2GEZHLZOHGDQ3YZQKSC/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
